1 out of 2 outcomes ! i hope i helped !
The answer should be $8 if you are trying to find the unit rate. All you have to do is divide 32 by 4 and you get 8. Hope that helped.
Answer:
a) -3 gallons per hour
b) y = -3x +14
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of change is computed by dividing the amount of change by the interval over which it occurred.
<h3>a)</h3>
Here the amount of gas decreased from 14 to 2 gallons, so a decrease of 14-2 = 12 gallons. That occurred over a 4-hour period, so the rate of change is (-12 gallons)/(4 hours) = -3 gallons/hour.
__
<h3>b)</h3>
The initial amount was 14 gallons, so the equation for the line describing remaining gas will be ...
y = -3x +14 . . . . gas in the tank after x hours
Let the number be y
The statement can be interpreted as
85% of y = 646
The magnitude size of -5.8 is 5.8
magnitude size of a number is the number itself, and if it’s negative, it becomes its absolute value (in other words, you remove the subtraction sign).
